Members DJ1935 Posted May 8, 2009 Members Report Posted May 8, 2009 I was asked to make a Camera Case for a just retired Dressage Judge. I thought she might like the Horse design. I've repaired plenty of box type articles with angled stitching but never done anything from scratch before. Here's the finished case.

Members PANTHER Posted May 8, 2009 Members Report Posted May 8, 2009 DJ That is a beautiful piece of work! I'm sure she is going to be delighted with the case. Will you add a strap to it or does it attach to a belt? Panther Quote
Members SteveBrambley Posted May 8, 2009 Members Report Posted May 8, 2009 That is really very good! Did you machine stitch or hand stitch? Steve Quote
Members DJ1935 Posted May 9, 2009 Author Members Report Posted May 9, 2009 Thank you, everyone, for your encouraging comments. The case has loops on the rear for attatching to a belt. It's all hand stitched. DJ Quote [font="Comic Sans MS"][size="3"][color="#a0522d"]"Growing old is compulsory - growing up isnt" [/color][/size][/font]
